Taylor Swift delighted her fans during a recent Eras Tour show at Aviva Stadium in Dublin, Ireland, on Friday. According to PEOPLE magazine, the 34-year-old superstar introduced two new mashups as part of her surprise songs segment, adding an extra layer of excitement to the event.
Swift’s first surprise was a mashup of “State of Grace” from her Red album and “You’re On Your Own Kid” from Midnights. This performance marked the debut of “You’re On Your Own Kid” on guitar, showcasing Swift’s versatility and dedication to offering unique experiences to her fans.
The second surprise mashup featured “Sweet Nothing” from Midnights combined with “Hoax” from Folklore, a song she had never performed live before. This medley further emphasized Swift’s ability to blend her extensive music catalog into innovative and memorable performances.
Known for her interactive surprises, Swift ensured these fan-favorite segments were a highlight of the concert. Throughout the evening, she donned vibrant outfits, including a bejeweled orange cropped top paired with a shimmering green skirt inspired by Ireland’s flag, adding a visual treat to her musical performance.
During her energetic rendition of “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” from the Red album, Swift’s backup dancer Kameron Saunders playfully shouted “pog mo thoin,” an Irish phrase meaning “kiss my ass,” as a nod to the host country.
Swift also paid a charming tribute to her boyfriend, Travis Kelce, incorporating his signature archer pose during her performance of “Midnight Rain” from the Midnights album, capturing the moment with her characteristic flair and connecting with her audience on a personal level.
The Eras Tour continues in Dublin with performances scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, promising more unforgettable moments for Swift’s devoted fans. This tour stop exemplifies Swift’s talent for creating magical, immersive concert experiences that celebrate her rich musical journey.
